Riley, James Once Upon the End, 373 p. Aladdin (Simon),
2013. $17. Violence: PG; Language: G. Mature Content: G.
Mia is determined to end the reign of her
grandmother, the Wicked Queen once and for all.
SO is Jack, so is Prince Philip and so is Penelope. Unfortunately, they all have secret plans and
no one is sharing – which makes for a HUGE mess, lots of misunderstandings and
a high likelihood of failure.
I have not
read the other books in this series and I did pretty well coming into it
blind. Riley did a great job of making
me super frustrated with the behavior of all of the characters, meaning I
bought into the premise quickly and could identify with them and their heroics
or their shortcomings. I could go on and
on and but I hope your students are reading this series.
